Status: offline 		I am just about finished building one of the new noblers. I put an incidence meter on it and everything is square- except that there is a little bit of wash-in on the wings. Very even on both sides around 1/2 degree at the tips. Looking back it seems like this will naturally happen unless you block up the trailing edge to keep everything square on the upper main spar when joining the wings. (This is not addressed in the instructions). Is wash-in part of the design or should I pull it out? The wing is not covered yet so there is still time...

Status: offline 		We checked with the designer of the model. The incidence angles of the engine, wings, and tail are all zero-zero-zero. The wings should have no twist in them, but a degree or two of washout at the tips won't hurt a thing. Washin is a bad thing, which will contribute to tip stalling if you get too slow.
